Blue Jelly Dwarf Shrimp 10+ Pack

Low quality shrimp, but good pricing

I ordered a 10pack of blue jelly shrimp, and the delivery took a bit longer than expected, but they did all arrive alive, and one of them even arrived berried with some babies hatched in the bag! However, many of them were pretty low quality with red spots that looked like they were reverting to red rilli shrimps, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping for. They also didn't really have much of a blue color, even after acclimating to their tank for a few days. I don't really mind, since it will be a fun project to work on breeding the shrimp to improve the quality, but it was a little disappointing. I also got some plants and snails that all arrived intact and alive.

Arrived Happy and Healthy

All the shrimp arrived happy and healthy and acclimated very well. They shipped super fast and were packed with styrofoam insulation in the box. I did purchase the extra heat pack. I received 12 healthy shrimp. Two of them look like red rili shrimp. I guess the blue jelly shrimp lineage originated from red rili shrimp, so it makes sense you could get some. The color of the shrimp in general are paler than in the pictures, most of them are males and juveniles so maybe they will get darker as they mature. I deducted one star. Otherwise I was very happy with my order and would order shrimp again. If you are looking for blue shrimp, you might want to consider the Blue Dream shrimp instead.

Blue jellies are actually red rillis

Not one of the blue jellies I ordered are blue. Every single one is clear with varying degrees of red on the body. Honestly they all look like red rilli or cherry culls. I give 2 stars instead of 1 because they are all lively and healthy.
